Proverbs 29:10

Compare all

8 Scoffers ^aset a city aflame,
But wise men turn away wrath.

9 If a wise man contends with a foolish man,
^aWhether the fool rages or laughs, there is no peace.

10 ^aThe bloodthirsty hate the blameless,
But the upright seek his¹ well-being.

11 A fool vents all his ^afeelings,
But a wise man holds them back.

12 If a ruler pays attention to lies,
All his servants become wicked.
